The paramount event in group golf is upon us.
The top dozen American golfers are set to clash with their European challengers in the Ryder Cup this weekend at Bethpage Black in New York, aiming for a comeback following a challenging performance two years prior in Italy. Despite Europe’s dominance with eight victories in the last 11 stagings of the biennial competition, the United States has secured wins in their most recent two appearances on their home grounds.
The competition commences on Friday, showcasing rounds of foursomes and four-ball contests. The two squads will replicate this format on Saturday before each participant takes to the course on Sunday for a series of 12 singles matches that will ultimately determine the victor of the cup. The initial team to amass 14.5 points emerges triumphant.
